@@madman2fallenangel dodging 200 lightning bolts in a row is definitely annoying, but it requires way less luck than the chocobo race. I’d argue that the chocobo race is an objectively worse design than the lighting bolt challenge just based on the fact that most of the race requires luck as opposed to skill alone. If you have access to the Fahrenheit, you’ll end up spawning in one of Rin’s agencies if you spawn in the thunder plains. If you go just south of there, you’ll find a crater next to one of those lightning rods where lightning will always spawn if you go under the lightning rod and then the crater next. It’s recommended that you have an armor piece with the no weapons ability, but using this trick is probably the fastest way to complete the challenge as far as I know. I also wouldn’t bother trying to complete all 200 lightning bolts at once. You should take a break at around 25-50 bolts. The game also doesn’t keep track for you, and you only get the actual achievement on your console after you obtain the Venus sigil, so you’ll most likely have to get more than 200 dodges if you lost count. Given how horrendous some of the challenges for the celestial weapons are, I doubt the people who actually worked on them ever even played the game

Cool to see that other people besides me have jumped back into FFX recently. Back in the PS2 days I didn’t have any help. Thank goodness for KZread! Thanks for this video. Of all the times I’ve played through the years, I never got all the celestial weapons.

For me, I would say the easiest to hardest is Rikku - you only need to find the cactuars, not be good at their mini game Auron - a bit of a grind, yes, but no difficulty whatsoever Yuna - easy, but you have to be careful of missable treasures that could lock you out of getting the Anima summon Wakka - middling and grindy, but at least Blitzball is a great mini game Kimahri - his minigame is annoying and has bad hit boxes, but is mercifully short and allows one mistake Lulu - thank God for the glitch, otherwise this would be borderline impossible Tidus - there is a special place in Hell for whoever designed the controls is this God-forsaken minigame from Hell. Seriously, I get the feeling that even Penance will show more mercy.

The Chocobo race is still one of my least favorite, most rage inducing, gaming moments of my life.. Still to this day! Lol

IF YOU'VE SKIPPED CHOCOBO TRAINER AND FOUGHT THE BOSS IN THE NEXT AREA BEFORE GOING BACK, THE CHOCOBO TRAINER IS AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE CALM LANDS FROM MACALANIA WOODS.

I've beaten FFX three times total. A 100% on PS2 when it first came out, another PS2 run a few years later where I didn't do everything like complete the monster arena, but did get all of the weapons at least, and another 100% when it came out on Steam. So 3 times getting all of the celestial weapons. The only one that ever caused me to shut the game off in frustration and need another try on a different day was lightning dodging, as it just takes too long and is extremely boring and I tend to lose track of how many dodges I'm at. I always found chocobo racing to be pretty easy, so I don't know why some people dislike it so much. It's less annoying to finish the plains dodging run at 0 time than figuring out/remembering a perfect temple track run.

I got Yuna and Rikku's celestial weapons and that's it! I don't think I have the patience to get the other weapons. The chocobo race ain't good for my mental health.

It's worth it for Tidus. Do what he did in the video, cut trainer off for early lead and just focus purely on avoiding birds and getting as many balloons as possible since they take off about 3 sec a piece. He finished at 33 sec, with 1-2 hits from birds and 13 balloons.

Thank you for the guide man, great video, Getting these sigils are so frustrating though...

Wow that run on the chocobo race was a white knuckler. You were so close to being hit at least 3 times. You probably coulda afforded a hit though since you went so fast. 13 seconds to spare at the end is really impressive. When I did this on the remaster I was only .2 from not getting the sun sigil.

Thanks for this!

Thanks for this video

Great video Brother.

The chocobo race against the trainer I personally haven't done it yet, but I went directly to the Raimen temple (or whatever it's spelled), I took the clouded mirror, I went to the forest, I gathered the family, and made the mirror infuse with power. If I remember correctly, the race doesn't make you take Tidus' weapon in the calm plain, where a guy stops you telling you that you have to beat that baron trainer cow to proceed further?

The only thing that would make these things even more awesome is if unlocked a hidden overdrive for both character and summon tied to weapon.

Replaying on Xbox game pass and my crests and sigils are messed. The mercury Sigil vanished from my inventory, blocking me from unlocking Wakka’s world champion weapon. I was able to open the Luca locker twice for some strange reason.

I played this years ago and recall using a few regular weapons instead of celestial weapons, I grabbed Godhand this time and geeeeeez 1 example is 65k one shotting mimics with only like 100 str. Maybe less. She does 99,999 to most mobs with under 180 str, I remember 80k on quite a few mobs using 255 str regular weapons. I recall adding 20% attack and piercing to no avail, it didn't do that 99,999 ignoring Def like celestial. I hate chocobo racing! It was easier to get the 1st minigames at least. I can't get the 5th chest ughh lol. Another annoying one is the butterflies. I don't like Kimahri anyways lol. So I've been using 1 weapon so far haha n beat most of the monster arena mobs.

If you are unable to fully power-up Tidus's ultimate weapon because you missed getting the Sun Crest the first time (and now you have to fight Dark Bahamut first), you can still use other characters such as Wakka. Before taking them on, it is highly advisable to max some of the characters stats first. Or you can go the cheap route by using Yojimbo's Zanmato, but you will need a lot of gil for it.

There really isn't a specific way to beat the trainer as the positions of balloons vary every attempt. In general, my advice would be to focus on dodging the birds and somewhat predict when they will be coming at you. If you can do this, you will also be able to grab the balloons. Also remember that there are times it's better to miss out a balloon rather than getting hit by birds multiple times. I hope this helps!
